    $200M in direct cash plus an unknown amount for the direct investments.

    Some comments.
    • Strong bias to gold but wide diversity of commodities and services.
    • Eclectic mix of commodities??
    • Strong bias to developers with few actual producers (Centamin/garnet/rubies, coal?, aggregate, services)
    • Most but definitely not all Au explorers/developers have world class resources - +3Moz
    • Wide range of project status - early explorer to producer with many in the transition phase MRE to development+
    • Centamin stands out as a long term producer which is leveraging their Egyptian mine into becoming a mid tier producer from multiple mines.
    • The size of direct cash amounts varies greatly - reflects?? Rubies in Greenland; Aggregate in NY state; Insitu Cu leaching Arizona; streaming; Au near past producer at Norseman.
    • They do seem to like left overs from past producers Tulla, Skeena, Charters Towers, Northisle (?former Island copper mine).
    • Also up and coming Au projects - Artemis (BC version), Nova, Marathon, Mayfair plus some at earlier stages. All of these are well known in Canada - Nova perhaps the least recognized being primarily ASX listed.
    • Couple of unusual choices - Auctus and Maroon Gold do not have websites and google search suggests corporate issues. Maroon seems to be related to AMD via a processing plant at Blackjack. My search was very cursory so $5M into these companies suggests more to the story.

    Serious money doesn't get thrown away on poor projects by the likes of management at Nebari. Diversification with a focus on gold seems to be a theme for them.
    Easy to see why NVA's Estelle came up in their search. Time will tell if they and holders here made a good choice.

    =====================================

    A couple of examples of deposits with large resources that have cost investors money.

    Wiluna - Blackham and its successor who recently went into receivership courtesy of the "special operation" in Ukraine. 5-7Moz Au with the majority in refractory category- production being sent to Russia for processing. I lost some but got out early enough.

    Amani - 4M0z @1 g/t Au 0.5g/t Cut off. DRC and a board with history.

    I daresay there are many more such deposits that can't make it over the many hurdles needed to become profitable mines in a world where change is always happening.

    Donlin: Price tag - remote - 'low grade' in the sense that it needs a large open pit or two or three vs the high grade UG at a Lupin/Eskay creek (1980s as well).

    Donlin Creek has been around for decades and its future may impact Estelle with access and a gas pipeline potentially being synergistic for NVA. Probably a couple of deposits with multi decade mine lives.
